From coastal BC to the far north, we've tackled projects across Canada's toughest climates
We've completed projects from Vancouver Island to Nunavut, with active work happening in BC, Alberta, Yukon, Northwest Territories, and beyond. Wherever there's challenging weather and folks who need buildings that actually work in it - that's where we show up.
We've done serious work in Yukon and NWT where temperatures can drop to -40 and below. These projects taught us what actually works when winter gets real.
Heavy snowfall, wind exposure, and dramatic temperature swings - we've handled it all through the Rockies and coastal ranges.
Alberta and Saskatchewan projects face brutal winter winds and wild temperature variations. We've engineered solutions that actually hold up year after year.
Fill out the form or give us a call. We'll set up a time to chat - could be phone, video, or in-person if you're local.
We'll dig into what you're planning, the site conditions, climate challenges, and your timeline. This is where we figure out if we're a good fit for each other.
We'll put together a detailed proposal outlining scope, timeline, and investment. Once you're on board, we'll get the paperwork sorted and kick things off.
From here, we're into the design phase. You'll have regular check-ins with us as we develop solutions that'll work for your specific site and climate challenges.
